Hoosiers who buy insurance on the insurance marketplace established by the Affordable Care Act can expect higher premiums next year.

The two insurance companies offering plans filed their 2019 rates this week. Care Source and Celtic (MHS/Ambetter) have asked for the maximum increases allowed. Individual marketplace plans will increase by 5 percent on average.
